Pumpkins and math!

Trying out a little pointillism art.

We loved our yummy snacks.

The dance was so exciting!

Tomorrow will be our first treat day! As noted at the start of the year we are planning the treats this year to keep everyone safe. Tomorrow students will be making their own treats, they are pictures below! We will be using bananas, dairy and gluten free pretzels, raisins and dairy and gluten free chocolate chips. We think they are pretty cute.

Remember to wear you purple, orange and black!!

We love our funny face pumpkins! These pumpkins helped us practice our scissor skills!

In Math, students are learning about ordinal numbers. Here they are doing pumpkin and ghost drawings by following steps using the terms first, second, third and so on.

We are having so much fun creating Halloween scenes using some fabulous crafts that were donated!

In class today we started doing our iPad rotations. We have access to 5 iPads that we can use at anytime! It’s so great. Today, students were exploring and discovering a great learning site called Starfall. If you get a chance at home, search it up and check it out. It’s great for learning letters and beginning reading skills.

Purposeful play time seems to always involve some structure building. It is so cool to see what students come up with. Here are two awesome creations from today.

 

With Year 2 students we are starting to get busy writing! Great job stretching your bubble gum.

Yoga in the gym was so much fun and relaxing.

New Lego toys delivered! So much fun creating and building.

On Friday, we had time to meet up with some grade 6 friends to do some nature rubbings and have some free play time!

Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.

Today we started creating our hand turkeys! It was so fun to paint each student’s hand.

In math, we are focusing on numbers now. Today we discovered 1 and 11.

 

Perfect weather for outdoor discovery!

We love practicing our letters. Mrs. Entwistle and I pull small groups to help them learn how to write the letters we are focusing on. You will see these sheets come home. Please put them in their reading folders. We will be putting the Ii in for you.

Students love the sand table!

So much pattern fun this week!

We are learning how to spell our names and the names of our friends.
